Everything Owen's gleaned has been predominantly from his old man. Even when he wasn't part of the coaching staff his dad would be on the sidelines talking to him pre-game. I'm sure to this day Owen still takes guidance from his dad about some of his decisions and how he plays the game. He's always kept his family very close. His mother [Colleen] is as big a driving force as his old man – and his uncle [Sean O'Loughlin] is the captain of Wigan. A lot people want to give you a lot of shit after every game and it's important that you trust your close counsel.feedback

I'm dead happy for him, but if I was going to put money on someone being able to bounce back, drag himself off the floor and do it again, it's going to be someone like Andy. He's an incredibly strong individual, a leader of men. He's an alpha male, domineering in his approach and his methodology. I know they are both professional enough for it not to affect their performances [on Saturday] too much. That's what comes first and the family, like it always does, will survive.feedback

It's not just his technical improvements, he's delved quite deep into mental aspects and emotional aspects of the game. He's very harsh on other people because he's so harsh on himself. But he knows now that not everyone, like him, wants the stick. He's studied Buddhism as well, in terms of mindfulness and staying in the moment, so he can black box mistakes, or even things that have gone well, and just think about the job at hand.feedback

As commander-in-chief, I have no greater responsibility than leading our men and women in uniform; I have no more solemn obligation sending them into harm's way. I think about this every time I approve an operation as president. Every time, as a husband and father, that I sign a condolence letter. Every time Michelle and I sit at the bedside of a wounded warrior or grieve and hug members of a Gold Star Family.

I was running down the stairs in heels with a cup of coffee in hand, I was talking over my shoulder and my heel caught and I fell backwards. I tried to get up and it really hurt. I've broken my toe. I've received excellent care from your excellent health service.
